  1. Reed v. Pittman

    257 La. 389 (La. 1971)   Cited 15 times
    In Reed, the plaintiff-subcontractor filed a reconventional demand reiterating his claims in the first lawsuit, and that case involved two lawsuits with similar parties in two different divisions of the trial court.

    La.CCP Art. 561. The case is before us on certiorari. Reed v. Pittman, 229 So.2d 455 (La.App. 4th Cir. 1969); see also 224 So.2d 100 (interlocutory opinion) (La.App. 4th Cir., 1969). The sole issue is whether the five-year period was interrupted by steps taken during this interval by the plaintiff in another action, with which the present suit was consolidated.
